Abstract

The real Lyapunov order in the set of real n × n matrices is a relation defined as follows: A ≤ B if, for every real symmetric matrix S, SB + Bt S is positive semidefinite whenever SA + At S is positive semidefinite. We describe the main properties of the Lyapunov order in terms of linear systems theory, Nevenlinna-Pick interpolation and convexity.
